Each campsite is along the waters of Ohio Brush Creek. This sacred waterway is also home to the Serpent Mound. Ohio Brush Creek is The Edge of Ohios Appalachia! The is much to be discovered in an area of glacial boundaries and ancient earthworks with 31 state and private nature preserves for hiking. And great paddling adventures on OBC and The Ohio River at The Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge. Wifi is available but very weak to non existent signal as you are in rural Appalachia.

Established in 1983 on a 60-acre plot of land right in the Shawnee State Forest. The property is beautiful with flat land, fields, and at the back are the foot hills of the Appalachian Mountains. We put a horse farm on the land in 2000. The horses here are my family and I want to expand and offer more opportunities on the land. That's when I came across Hipcamp! I'm excited to share a piece of my heaven that I'm fortunate enough to call home.

Deer Haven is a WONDERFUL property! Brent literally has just about everything you will need during your stay in the cabin. It is secluded, peaceful and clean! Every morning you walk outside to a picture perfect view. We caught and released some bass, bluegill and more out of the pond, the trails around the property have a clear path to walk through and the hot tub was very clean and relaxing. We throughly enjoyed our time here and we are already planning our next stay at Deer Haven! A huge thank you to Brent and his cleaning crew for everything! We can’t wait to go back!

Beautiful property up a little mountain, they are working on getting power and water setup and the area is very much still a work in progress but it's getting there, very few neighbors and your on the edge of a ridge with great views. The family is very kind and even ran an extension cord out for us to have power, it let us put up our outdoor lights and made for an awesome extended weekend. Your close to all the awesome caves and falls. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful two-night stay at Wildridge! Jody and Mark were fantastic, communicative hosts — we were thrilled to be among the first guests to experience their gorgeous and peaceful property. Tucked away from the main roads yet close to Hocking Hills and local amenities, this is such a lovely campsite. Thank you Mark and Jody! Wishing you all the best as you get the campsite fully up and running.

I loved setting up right on the water's edge. The site is big enough for a family reunion so I was able to spread out. Took my GSD and he was pretty relaxed, which is unusual. Can't wait til my next open weekend to go back for more relaxation time. Thanks Nikki for helping me discover my new favorite spot. You campers better all book your weekends here before I do!!

This site was lovely, plenty of room and multiple hammock hanging options. In addition to a picnic table there were two lounge chairs and a patio table with chairs. The swimming hole a very short walk away was great.

Moondoggie's is one of the best tent camping experiences we've had in Ohio. I grew up in Ohio but hadn't been to Adams county it is literally like being in a different state, the rolling hills of Appalachia are beautiful, roads are fun to drive with picture worthy views. Lots of rocks with fossils to be found in the river. The owls at night added so much. The night sky is full of stars and a great place to see the milky Way, no light pollution. A lot of camps you don't experience nature as we did at Moondoggie's. Owls, Hawks, Blue Heron, and Beavers. The night sounds of the owls, frogs, cicadas, and crickets was so relaxing. Our site overlooked the river. The atmosphere was so calm, quiet, relaxing, and very tranquil. The grounds are clean, grass mowed, portapot was clean and odor free. We took a friend who is recovering from brain cancer surgery he said that this was the best camping trip of his life and was exactly what he needed. Our host, Nikki is amazing, she is friendly, energetic, and will go out of her way to make sure your stay is as perfect as possible. This was our first trip of many more to come. I'm a lifelong tent camper and I can say that Moondoggie's is one of the best camping spots in Ohio and if your considering going book your trip you will enjoy it.

Weekend Trip to Myhio Haven Horse Farm

This campsite is perfect for a weekend getaway. The creek is one of the best we have been to, while there is a road that follows it the creek is beautiful! We fished using worms and caught over 20 in one day for 2 people (blue gill, small & large mouth bass). While the “outhouse” needs a little love, it works—we brought our own set up but it would work if you don’t have one. There is some road noise, but that doesn’t bother us.

It’s a gorgeous spot to be at. Nikki’s super sweet. You can rent a kayak. The water front is a great spot for littles. We have small kids so the water is the perfect depth for them and if you don’t have littles the water gets pretty deep to be able to fully swim. There’s TONS of butterflies there too so we were all just spotting out the butterflies or swimming. It’s a nice little spot to get connected with nature again. My family and I had a blast and Nikki is an amazing host. ❤️

Staying at Rebecca's cabin was wonderful! It was clean, cute, and comfortable. Our host was also very communicative; especially after a WILD storm rolled through. She checked in with us to make sure we were okay. She also offered us some wonderful squash from her garden that was delicious! The views were spectacular and perfect for watching storms and sunsets. That is a great stay!

Weekend Trip to Waterfront on The Edge

Absolutely Amazing! I could rave about Moondoggie, Nikki and Jamie for ages. It is a hidden gem in Adam’s County and deserves all the attention it can get. Location of the sites are great! You are overlooking the creek, optimal shade/tree cover, bugs/mosquitos are barely noticeable even though you are close to the water, open grass where your doggo can run and the quiet was sublime. Walking and exploring the creek was so peaceful. Our dog Indy got to swim for the first time and he loved it so much we’d catch him trying to slink off down towards the creek waiting for us to join him. Nikki is just great people and is doing so much for the community. I will tell everyone about this site, Moondoggie, and will be back

It is a primitive campsite, so don't expect state park amenities, but you can expect privacy. You are only a few miles from Shawnee State Park if you want to take advantage of their activities. Tree coverage was mother nature's umbrella during heavy rains and the fishing and swimming were great. Getting to the campsite was a brief adventure, so you absolutely need 4 wheel drive. I wouldn't hesitate to book again.
